Your color..?
 

I ride the faster black hawk, but i never see any other black ones on the road. Ive seen a bunch of red and a few yellows.

What color is your hawk>?

03 candy blue....

1999 VTR Firestorm in "midnight blue" (my labelling, not sure what Honda calls it...Canadian model, colour never made it to the US, believe it was for liability reasons, something to do with it being such a fast colour....), a very sober colour, but I must admit to having a sweet spot for the black ones (too bad they just aren't quick enough....)

Italian Red thank you very much. And "The goddamn Germans got nuthin' to do with it!" I love that movie...

The fastest color also ...Black !

Black is best!

Can't fit my pics into attachments. Look in gallery if you want to see.

There's too many colors on these bikes no matter what color the plastic is. The engine crankcases are a different color metal than the frame which is sometimes complimented with gold rims (?) There's shiny black metal and matte black metal. Then you add the fairing color on top of that.

The bike should be no more than three total colors. Two would be really cool. Try to get there!

The enormity of the coating and finishing processes to achieve the look is big bucks. Shayne made that investment with his bike and I think it shows - very crisp looking design - even looks fast.

It's just the wrong color. It should be red.:p :horse:

wow,,,is it dead yet??

One's yellow and the other's '03 blue.

And who was talking paint about 24 hours ago??? How did you make out on the new bodywork?

1997 Firestorm - yellow

custom titanium

Italian red on mine...

2005 Last Year
 

Mine is a Puter Gold kinda....look at it what do you think?

Mine is a 2004 black with the gold rims.

2004 Black and gold rims. Come on you guys you know that is the most stylish ones out of the bunch. :bling:

I don't know guys, but I think BLUE takes
the cake for the best color. It's the fastest and sexiest!!!:twisted:

2000 black with polished rims and black wheel centres.

Was formerly a large rolling sticker thanks to previous owner but now removed all the ghastly muck and she looks awesome.

I have had a tear up with a red firestorm and I can say black must give me an extra 10bhp or so

There all nice but I am kinda hooked on the BLUE!!! Red seems to get the Fuzz's attention too much and Yellow too! Black and Blue and Titainium....slide under the radar........

Yellow... It took me FOREVER to find one when I was looking to buy one. I only wanted Yellow... I had to drive 5 hours to pick it up... '00 w/6300 miles in early '06..

Black faster huh? Yellow is lighter than black, and therefore it has to be faster... greater power to weight ratio..:lol:

2000 Pearl Yellow. Polished Frame, swingarm and Chrome rims. Not too many yellows around. Mainly see Red or black.

One other 1999 VTR Firestorm in midnight blue.

welcome brother... a fine choice btw :) Oh, and you surely discovered too, there is just something special about that dark blue, it doesn't show up on a dyno, but out on the road...vroooom.... lol

On a more serious note, I think they all look good (heck, even the orange ones) but I do agree that some colours (usually reds, yellow, Kawi-type greens,...) do attract attention from the "donut crowd". When I was on the market for a VTR, I was looking for a less visible colour for that very reason and I think that the midnight blue accomplishes that (as does the titanium and some of the others).

cheers

Sorry to say, but the "radar" detects speed equally on all colors, even white! Found that out last year but the guy was cool and let me go with a warning on a 69 in a 45. Phew!

So Cleveland, you're saying that yellow is lighter in weight or hue? This is a pop quiz, BTW. I happen to have some super secret information on which color really is the fastest! :)

i have an orange one!!!

03 BLUE!!!! Love it!!!

I was inferring that because it was lighter in HUE, it has to be lighter in weight... (in jest of course)... Of course I was speaking only of FACTORY colors... Using my rational, WHITE would be the lightest... thereby making it the fastest... However, I must disqualify it as it was not a factory color.

On a serious tip... what's you super secret info? Real?

Yes, of the factory colors, that is what I was referring to. Okay, here's the deal. When the wifey wrecked the Superhawk a few years back I started collecting fairings, didn't matter what color. I collected red, yellow, firestorm yellow (CA color), and I think I had one black piece too. In prepping the parts for paint I stripped them down, see. I discovered that all colors except the Superhawk yellow had two coats of primer, followed by the base coat. The yellow only had one coat of primer. Thus, it has less paint, is lighter, and reasons that it is obviously faster.

What about blue? That's easy. We ALL know blue isn't the fastest color. :)

Mine is painted in a blue pearl. It is a Ford colour in Australia called "Blueprint".

Sweeeeet. :cool:
